Do I need an appointment to visit the library?
Answer
As of the Spring 2023 semester, most library services are available on a walk-in basis and do not require an appointment. The only services requiring appointments are group study rooms (L-109, L-110, L-112-2), presentation practice room (L-107), and research appointments with librarians. Please see below for details on how to book these appointments.
Reserve a Group Study Space
To reserve a group study room, click on the "Reserve a Group Study Space" button from the library homepage.
Then, click on the link for "Reserve a Group Study Room" or "Reserve a Presentation Room."
Once you make your selection, the next page will show you a map of the study spaces, and ask you to choose a time for your reservation. Select the green box that represents the study space you would like to reserve and the time of your reservation. For example, the screenshot below shows a reservation being made for Group Study room #1 from 10:00am to 2:00pm.
Click the blue "Submit Times" button. Next, you will need to fill-out a form that asks for:
- Your name, student email address, and SAC student ID number
- COVID-19 symptoms disclaimer
- Number of group members and each group member's name
- Purpose of study
Click "Submit my Booking" at the bottom of your page. You will receive an email confirming your booking.
Please check-in with a librarian at the Reference Desk once you and your group members arrive.
